Sight is the most highly developed sense that humans have. But we tend to spend more time watching life on screens, than experiencing it first hand. - Ichigo Ichie
Looking and seeing is as different as hearing and listening.
Looking is elevated to sight when you add intention, and awareness.
This is where the filters attitude, vision, courage, and persistence come in.
When we apply the filters to the things we are looking at, we feed our minds images to process into things we probably will be thinking about.
And the six magic words are…
We become what we think about.
The biggest component to sight is awareness. This is takes focus. Most things we happen to see are looked at, but overlooked. True gems “hidden in plain sight”.
Awareness is in sight is essential. It gives value to a subject, and sense it is valued, it is handled more carefully than things we hardly care for. This is why two people can see the same thing and one think it is the greatest thing in the world, or a solution to a problem, and the other sees it as useless. I think of a usb cord. One comes with everything, we’ve had hundreds over the past few years, but a charger cord is like gold in my house, we never have one when we need it. In some other households, people say, “I have way too many of these”, and throw them away.
Sight is intentionally being aware of things, in other words, paying attention.
An encounter using sight enhances and gives value to what is being seen in the Ichigo Ichie moment.
